5 Deadlift every 1:30×5 work up to 1 round at 80% all dead stop
Rope climb skills
5 Rounds
12 DB Front rack lunges 45/25
2 rope climbs
200m run
Increasing the reps this week on the Deadlifts. Don’t go beyond 80%. All must be deadstop. The lunges are there to strength the core and the glutes. The run is to allow the HR to come down but not completely. I want the lunges unbroken. This will cause the HR to spike a little more each rou

Snatch work to heavy 3 in 20 min
4 min AMRAP rest 1 min x 3
8 snatch 70% of above
50 double unders
max cal bike or row
Use the strength to work on form. Get heavy, but make it look pretty. The weight for the wod should heavy enough to drop from the top, but not so heavy that you miss. Go all out on the row/bike. This is meant to be a sprint. Yesterday was more aerobic. You should feel like you just ran a max effort 400m each time you get off the bike or rower.
Wednesday, July 12th
Back squat 3×10 70%
SuperSet 10 strict pullups
Toes to Bar skills
“Optimus Prime”
5 Rounds
10 goblet squats 53/35
5L/5R KB push press
5L/5R KB snatch
10 toe to bar
Cash out 800m run after the last round
We are supersetting pullups with the squats because strict pullups are one of the best ways to strengthen the upper back and you all NEED them:) Scale the KB complex so that you keep a fast pace. This should feel like FRAN. The run is meant to be the icing on the cake. One of the best ways to build both the glycolytic an aerobic systems is to tax the aerobic system once the glycolytic has been maxed out. That’s the idea today.
Thursday, July 13th
3 sets
10 DB shoulder press
10 V-ups
15 back extensions
4rds
15L/15R Russian twists
20 KBS 70/53
15 Plyo jump over KB
50m Front rack carry 70/53
50m sled push 4/3
I love v-ups. They have a ton of carry over to gymnastics moves as well as improve stability for lifting. Back extensions will help strengthen the posterior chain. The whole day today is core. Russian twists train rotation, and the front rack improve anterior stability. Go hard on the sled pushes. The jumps and sled pushes will spike the heck out of the HR. You won’t be able to recover on the front rack carry. This wod is a sprint. Go get it!
Friday, July 14th
Clean+Front Squat+Jerk- 5 sets to get to a heavy set
“Big Boss”
25 min AMRAP
2 squat cleans 135/95
2 front squats
2 Jerks
400m run
Add as much or as little each round, score is max wt and max rds
Its hard to get more bang for your buck than a barbell complex. This hits all the parts of a clean and jerk. Don’t go to a max on the strength. Use it to warmup the movement and get up to about 85% of what you think you can do. Then, drop back down for the wod and build it up. This will allow you to move the barbell a lot faster and will really help dial in your technique. If needed, start lighter so you can add the whole time.
